Microsoft Edge (Chromium-based) for Android Spoofing Vulnerability

Published Aug 12, 2025 · Updated Aug 12, 2025

Summary

Impact: Spoofing. Microsoft rating: Low. Not known to be exploited — Exploitation Unlikely. Customer action: Required.

Details

According to the CVSS metric, the attack vector is local (AV:L). Why does the CVE title indicate that this is a remote code execution?
The word Remote in the title refers to the location of the attacker. This type of exploit is sometimes referred to as Arbitrary Code Execution (ACE). The attack itself is carried out locally.
For example, when the score indicates that the Attack Vector is Local and User Interaction is Required, this could describe an exploit in which an attacker, through social engineering, convinces a victim to download and open a specially crafted file from a website which leads to a local attack on their computer.

What is the version information for this release?
139.0.3405.86: 139.0.3405.86, 8/07/2025: 8/07/2025, 139.0.7258.66/67: 139.0.7258.66/67

According to the CVSS metrics, successful exploitation of this vulnerability could lead to no loss of confidentiality (C:N) and integrity (I:N), but could lead to some loss of availability (A:L). What does that mean for this vulnerability?
An attacker using either a specially-crafted page or a content script injected into a target page can show an extension's popup over a permission prompt or screen share dialog allowing the extension to spoof parts of the prompt's UI that shows its origin.
